Orlistat acts by inhibiting pancreatic and gastrointestinal lipases, preventing absorption of about 30% of dietary fat. Randomized controlled trials have shown that patients taking this have lost 2.7kg or 2.9% more weight than controls. As orlistat reduces LDL and cholesterol levels independently of reductions in body weight, it also retards the progression to a diabetic state and aids glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Side effects include fecal urgency and abdominal cramping.

Otoplasty Otoplasty — also known as cosmetic ear surgery — is a procedure to change the shape, position or size of the ears.
You might choose to have otoplasty if you're bothered by how far your ears stick out from your head. You might also consider otoplasty if your ear or ears are misshapen due to an injury or birth defect.
Otoplasty can be done at any age after the ears have reached their full size usually after age 5 — through adulthood. In some cases, the surgery is done as early as age 3.
If a child is born with prominent ears and certain other ear-shape problems, splinting may successfully correct these issues if started immediately after birth.

Overweight Over the past few years, it is seen that thinness or body perfection has evolved into a standard of beauty, which is considered as an achievement, a reward for maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise. However, such superficial beliefs lead to discrimination which creates heightened negativity in minds of people who were obese or overweight. The health of a person cannot be measured or defined; therefore it cannot be explained by a person s weight or appearance. Many people, who are thin, also follow an unhealthy lifestyle, yet they don t gain weight; this differs from person to person.
